From the birth of Hip Hop and Electro
through Techno, Electronica, Jungle, Rave, Drum and Bass and it's evolution
into Dubstep, Bass House, Footwork and Trap, the Roland TR 808 Kick Drum's
ubiquitous Boom and Thump is without doubt the sound that defines an era of
Bass-centric music more than anything else.
Tom Middleton has a deep rooted love for
this revolutionary instrument and has been busy preparing a DJ set based on the
History of the Roland TR 808 Kick Drum for Memory Box at Corsica Studios on
Saturday 6th July.
Memory Box is a night that delves deep into
the archives of defining genres over the last 25 or so years of electronic
music. So on this very special night, come and get your geek on as Tom
Middleton takes you on a history lesson of one of the most prolific pieces of
studio kit to emerge in the last three decades.
Expect Hip Hop, Electro, Techno, Rave, Jungle, D&B, Dubstep, Trap,
Footwork... it's all about the 808 Kick!'
“I remember hearing and feeling that deep
low end sub bass kicking you in the chest and making your nethers rattle when a
local DJ dropped Run DMC's Peter Piper on a system with 18" Sub woofers
and thinking this is the best thing I'd ever heard!” enthuses Tom.
Filling out the history lesson, Memory Box
creator Robin Ball will be playing his Memory Box set of 90’s house, techno,
beats and breaks from some of his favorite labels like Warp, R&S, Outer
Rhythm, KMS, Transmat and S.U.A.D.
In contrast to this, Socialeyes host room 2
with Wiggle club night and label boss Nathan Coles and Robin Ball supported by
the Isolater DJs playing upfront tech house and techno.

Socialeyes present The Memory Box
The Memory Box is here to encapsulate some
of the most memorable moments through electronic dance music
history. This is music that has defined a generation. Spanning all
the golden eras between Chicago House and Dubstep via seminal movements of Acid
House, Detroit Techno, Balearic vibes and the birth of Breakbeat.
The Memory Box will pay homage to these
special moments in our history with a different party dedicated to a different
era or movement each time, inviting either a legendary DJ known for that sound,
or up and coming DJ’s playing the music that inspired them.
We know you’ll love to go back to the
legendary sounds of the ‘Summer of Love’ or when Deep House made its mark or
the crazy fluro days of rave. Are you ready to return to when the Bristol
massives ruled clubland with trip hop or revising the sounds of Metalheadz or
Reprazent when drum & bass really stamped its seal on popular
culture. You could pick up where you left off with the sound of British
Nu House or Techouse or the rise of Dubstep and the explosion of the Bass
sound.
At the heart of it all, Memory Box will
serve to provide a great party with quality electronic dance music that stands
the test of time.
